To put things in perspective, the Snapdragon 636 chipset in the Redmi Note 5 Pro has 8 x Kryo 260 cores clocked at up to 1.8Ghz. This is paired with the Adreno 509 GPU. The chip is built on a 14nm process. Meanwhile, the MediaTek Helio P60 sports 4 Cortex A73 cores and 4 Cortex A53 cores arranged in a big.LITTLE configuration. All the cores are clocked at up to 2.0 GHz. What this means is that high-performance tasks will activate the A73 cores while the A53 cores are responsible for maintaining battery efficiency.
